Default Anybody try the 5150III 15watt head?

Only had 5 or 10 minutes with it, but I really dug the 1/4 power switch. I've been considering a blackstar 1 watt, but a 5150 operating at 3 & 3/4 watts is intriguing! The "clean" channel, and yes that word needs to be bracketed with quotation marks, is about perfect for me at low gain settings.

Anybody play with one? I think it's well worth the $700 street price. It would be much better for my playing style than a Fender DDRI, and costs less. Of course it's only a head, but it's switchable between 4, 8, and 16 so I can use any cab I own. A 4 x 12 would be more than enough for any situation I will face before my demise.
